General BS forumI guess this will be for anything that would seem to be off topic in any other forum here. Just general shootin' the breeze kind of topics.
I'm moving a little closer to work and found out the place I just rented is to far out for cable provided internet and AT&T, the local phone company, does offer DSL at this location . I'm actually only 4 miles from the city limits, but I guess this stuff happens close to the Ozarks. Curacao said I will have to use either Satellite Internet or Wireless Mobile Broadband. Does anyone have any experience with either of these.
I used satellite internet for a while and it SUCKED. In some instances, dial-up was faster..... And everytime a storm came through, heavy clouds would block the signal. The name of the company was StarBand, I believe.

Gee... I miss Florida
I don't remember where Washington MO is but I had the same problem when I lived in St. Robert/Waynesville for three yrs, and reminds me why I don't live there anymore.
I've had both. I was happy with the satellite but the wireless card isn't much good. It's hard to setup a network in the house (you need a special router) and I was with AT&T so if I wasn't connected to 3G it was so damn slow it was almost worthless. The 3G connection depended on my proximity to a tower.
